Күн бұрын

This video will show 5 axe head restorations. Each head has been done using a different way. Those metods can be done almost for free at home. Please Let me know which one metod you prefer!
Tools and products which one I use everyday (links are bellow)
For sanding I'm always using Festool Rotax RO 150
amzn.to/2pN69mM
For polishing metal Unipol paste is my prefered way to go :)
amzn.to/2uqmX86
Best Japanese wet stones for sharpening (get the set of 800,1200,6000 + nagura 8000 stone )
amzn.to/2I9vFcU
Belt Grinder 5x 72 with same design as I'm using
(or just get DIY set and make one will cost much less )
amzn.to/2GiKJ7g
Good epoxy for handle

I like that you said it depends on what type of axe head for which type of rust removal process, and what the outcome will be. Doesn’t make sense to do electrolysis if it’s not a very historic piece and is just going to be mirror polished afterward, just sand that sucker down.

Mesmerized by your work. Very relaxing to watch. I don't know how I got to your channel but I will be sharing.

I don't have your talent or tools , but what little I have done was with vinegar , wire brushes and sand paper . I have used machine oil , silicone spray , and clear shellac for the preserving . I do want to buy a belt sander , it does a lot of work quicker than the orbital sander . Great video as Always !!!!!!!!

Great video Andre . I have never used the salt water bath with electricity . Have used the sodium bicarbonate / baking soda ... and will have to give your method a try . Have never seen Coca Cola used . Thanks again for another very interesting video !

@QuantumPyrite_88.9 6 жыл бұрын

Yes - phosphoric acid - muriatic acid / hydrochloric acid can be neutralized with common baking soda . I have an old hatchet head a friend gave me and will try your salt bath method with a battery charger . Once again Andre -> Thanks Bro .

My grandpa was tearing down an old building a long time ago and found a sword. We researched it and it's from WW2 but it's really messed up and rusty. I wonder if it could be restored...?

Quick Question: If you had a high-pressure diesel gurney, would that also work to remove rust on large items like cars? I would think it works similar to sand-blasting. Pls Respond. Thx.
